SAGITTARIUS ARIES

23 NOVEMBER – 21 DECEMBER

Occasionally, you’ve felt excluded from certain people, gatherings or occasions. This could all change as you find yourself at the centre of something that’s bringing about fundamental developments in your work or social arrangements. However, it won’t all happen overnight, so wait until you see a clear indication that doors are being opened at last.

CAPRICORN

22 DECEMBER – 20 JANUARY

You know deep down that a loved one’s fears are irrational when it comes to getting on with everyday life. Remember that with the Sun squaring Neptune, not everybody can think logically. Your job is to sound supportive rather than impatient and to avoid adopting a critical voice when calm reassurance and common sense are required. 21 MARCH – 20 APRIL

For some time now, your hopes of travelling or joining an academic or educational group have been frustrated by the practicalities involved. Soon, however, you’ll be encouraged to try again. No matter how headstrong you might feel, you’ll realise you must plan carefully and take into consideration the possible developments that could still block your path.

G E MI N I

22 MAY – 21 JUNE

Try not to suffer from divided loyalties when opportunities in the wider world clash with shifts in a close relationship. You and the other person involved must trust yourselves to decide what is and isn’t possible. Then, go out of your way to ensure that truth and mutual respect are ever present.

LEO

24 JULY – 23 AUGUST

Listen carefully to somebody suggesting different ways for you to approach a work-related matter. With Saturn confronting Uranus, it might be all too easy to ignore advice and convince yourself that you know best. But why doubt the wisdom of this individual who very probably has something valuable to contribute?

AQUARI U S

21 JANUARY – 19 FEBRUARY

Recent concerns about assets or cash flow should soon ease, although you’ll still need to manage unexpected fluctuations. There are people who are keen to include you in activities that will put you in touch with individuals who can advise you on how to capitalise on your resources. You’ll know who to trust.

VIRGO

24 AUGUST – 23 SEPTEMBER Every now and again, you’ll try to tend to family or home-based commitments only to find that outside responsibilities demand your attention. Promise yourself that, around the middle of the month, nothing and nobody will come between you and loved ones or household duties which you feel you have abandoned recently. It’s all about priorities.

LIBRA

24 SEPTEMBER – 23 OCTOBER Relieved though you may be that relatives or friends approve of the way you’re investing in your day-to-day surroundings, there may be a few sticking points. Energetic Mars is befriending Pluto but challenging Jupiter. Don’t assume that if you’re consumed by an extravagant or outlandish streak, you’ll have praise heaped upon you. It won’t happen.

PISCES

20 FEBRUARY – 20 MARCH Communications from far afield might leave you wondering whether you’ve misjudged a complex situation. But you’ll soon be reassured by those in authority that your position is stronger than ever. Don’t let this go to your head. It’s important to be perceived as confident and capable but, at the same time, to know your limitations.

TA U R U S

21 APRIL – 21 MAY Discussions about money or business might seem daunting. However, the solar eclipse on 4 December suggests you may well decide that you’re as able and well informed as anybody else involved. Consequently, you’ll begin to say what you think, loudly and clearly, without empowering associates to take decisions that you do not fully agree with.

CANCER

22 JUNE – 23 JULY Although you might not have objected to working hard in a particular area, you must have wondered why peers were given a lighter load. If this thought becomes irksome, you should raise the issue with whoever has the power to make choices in such areas. Just don’t risk jeopardising valuable contacts in the process.

SCORPIO

24 OCTOBER – 22 NOVEMBER Money matters might dominate, but you’ll also be distracted by somebody or something that makes your heart beat a little faster. Perhaps you need to reflect on the relationship you have with your bank balance and decide if it’s the most important thing in the world—because it really isn’t, is it?
